About Slide Mode and Non-slide Mode

Multimedia messages can use one of two modes: Slide Mode and Non-slide Mode. Slide Mode uses slides and consists of a few slides. A slide can have an image, a piece of text, or an audio clip, or it can have a mixture of image, text, and audio. Slides are automatically displayed on devices with a preset duration for the display of each slide. You can choose from five layout options for your slides. In Non-slide Mode, the images, text, and audio clips are presented on mobile devices according to their encoded sequence in the message body, but not in a slide format. The duration for display is not set for any part or page of the multimedia message. Text in Non-slide Mode messages can be scrolled up or down by pressing the up and down keys on the mobile device that you are using. By using Non-slide Mode, you can send long pieces of text to mobile devices and read them on the devices as well.
